Why is allergic rhinitis also called hay fever?


Allergic rhinitis is also called hay fever even though it is not accompanied by fever. WHY? :)
----------

"Hay fever" was the original folk name given to it because it was at the time to harvest the hay (late May to the end of June) in Europe (for feeding cattle) it was then that people had the symptoms. Latter on in became obvious that the pollen from several flowers was involved so it took the name pollinosis. At last medicine took over and recognized the hole symptomatology and causes, after which its scientific name came to be.  (+ info)

Does anyone know how to get rid of allergic rhinitis?


I have tried different medicines, they don't work (Sudafen, Sinutab, etc). I am now addicted to otrivine. It's becoming ridiculous.
----------

I sympathise with you, because as you have discovered - all these medications can have a rebound effect when you have used them for a long time.
I suggest you see an Ear Nose & Throat surgeon who will check whether or not you have an underlying infection and/or abnormality of the sinus cavities (you may have something like a benign polyp for example).
Ask you doctor if he can refer you to an allergist who will be able to de-sensitise you by firstly finding out what you are allergic to and then giving you minute amounts of the allergen by regular injections over a period of time.
I was de-sensitised against house-dust mite years ago and have never had a problem since.  (+ info)
